A matter of good taste...

whey protein facts"Which flavor of MASS PRO Whey Protein really tastes best?"

Well, that truly comes down to personal preference. They have award winning flavor profiles, for certain. The Pure Vanilla is authentic, not anything like the fake butterscotch tasting vanilla of most brands... And the Chocolate is rich, dark. A real treat! Oh, and the MVP is natural/neutral, so lives up to it's name- Most Versatile Protein. Great added to ANYTHING. Try them all.

Happy to help, you'll find details on fast and effective TranQuilogen, here- TranQuilogen - Mental & Physical REJUVENATION.


Adaptogen N Best Use

"I love and enjoy the better sleep, body composition and drive I get with Adaptogen N. I will finish my second bottle in 2 weeks. I believe it's time for me to cycle off for a month. I work the midnight shift and usually work out three days a week in the morning. Adaptogen N helps me sleep and recover. When I take melatonin by itself I have bad nightmares. For some reason your formula is different. So what do I do when my bottle ends? I'm going to order some other products, maybe the Kre Alkalyn with Ecdysterone. What's your suggestion and do I need to go off the whole month to ensure my body doesn't get too used to the Adaptogen?"

Thank you. The general suggestion is to take two weeks off Adaptogen N every 10 weeks or so, or to simply skip 2 days per week ongoing when getting to where you are. Most pick the latter as best practice, and it's just enough of a break ongoing to keep the cell receptors fresh and active. The Kre-Anabolyn is an excellent alternate, too, and stacks especially well with Adaptogen N. Visit the Bodybuilding Kits section on the Products tab above for more on that stack, called 'Alpha 77'.

Advancing in Size & Strength

"I've been using your Kre-Alkalyn creatine for over a year and have gotten great results. My body looks a lot different than when I started. I've finally hit a plateau though, and I'm thinking of bumping up to Kre-Anabolyn. I'm a little confused about the differences and advantages. What more can I expect from kre-Anabolyn as far as size and strength gains?"

First, congratulations on your hard work and success! Kre-Anabolyn is demonstrably a much more advanced size and strength compound. Here's the definitive Q&A on it along with great tips on how to maximize your results.


Raw Eggs?

"To build muscle mass, how many raw eggs should I drink a day and at what times of the day?"

Please, don't ever consume raw eggs. While it was done in the "good old days" before salmonelia was such a high risk factor, it is without question a no-no today.

If you were to contract salmonelia, it could potentially kill you. At the very least, it will make you extremely sick and put you in great pain for weeks on end.

Read up on our 1st quality Mass Pro Whey Protein and you'll find it a much better way to boost protein intake, all around, including price per gram. Below you'll find extensive information on protein requirements under the heading "Protein: How much is enough?".


Digestive enzymes

"What can you tell me about digestive enzymes? My diet coach suggested they may help me to better absorb the foods I eat, protein in particular, since I'm on a high protein diet."

No question about it, a quality formula such as the Digestive Enzyme Blend we stock can deliver improvements for most everyone. For those with digestive limitations, the positive impact to overall health, fitness and well-being can be astounding. Check out the following well researched report for all the facts on digestive enzymes.


How to maximize your natural GH

"What is the best way to take Gamma GH for maximum results?"

Gamma GH is a breeze to take and works great at increasing natural GH. This compound displays a vast profile of athletic, physique and life enhancement benefits.

The best time to take Gamma GH is just before bed on an empty stomach. Simply mix the pure powder in a small amount of water and drink. Gamma GH should be taken sublingually (dissolved under the tongue) to insure absorption if you have eaten within two hours before administration.

Clinical trials show a 5 gram dose of Gamma GH to have the greatest impact (550% GH increases within 90 minutes). It is recommended that you start out with a 1-2 gram dose and work up to the five gram level over a week or two. This is because Gamma GH has a very noticeable effect. You can literally "feel" it working within just a few minutes by way of a "tingling" sensation at your nerve endings and through the calming, relaxing effect it exerts.


Supplements for Golf

golf supplements"I'm a 43 year old golf pro who is developing a bit of a spare tire around the middle and arthritis in the toes. I also smoke, and hate every minute of it. What do you recommend in the way of supplements to help shed the gut, regain strength/mobility and get me back to a more healthy lifestyle? Do you ship overseas and is there any problems with importing these items?"

We've shipped overseas daily for 20+ years and welcome your business.

For arthritis and joint health, we can not recommend a combo of TranQuilogen and Glucosamine Chondroitin DS highly enough. Your joints will feel years younger after a months use.

For very noticeable strength gains and a harder physique, add our Patented Kre-Alkalyn Creatine or better yet Kre-Anabolyn 747 to the above stack. For added fat loss, endurance and mental focus, use Burn It Up! capsules.

Of course, we encourage you to quit smoking.Of course, we encourage you to quit smoking. It's no easy battle, but average Joe's quit, and stay quit, everyday. After 72 hours the nicotine is out of the bloodstream and it is a mental battle from that point on. Bite the bullet, and quit cold turkey is our advice.


Big arms

"I have a question about my biceps and triceps. I work 4 exercises for each and do 3 sets of 4-8 reps. When I finish my last set should I do 1 light set of 10-15 reps to get that last pump? I'm having a hard time adding size to my arms."

Frankly, you are more than likely overtraining arms. The last thing you need is more sets. DROP two movements for both biceps and triceps, cut back to two full-bore sets and within weeks you're sure to see gains return. See, the arms are a small muscle group compared to your quads, chest and back. Plus, they are worked indirectly when you bench, row, etc. Limited sets + 110% intensity = big arms!

By the way, "pump" has nothing to do with growth. Sure, it feels good and swells the muscle, but in reality it is nothing more that the muscle being filled with blood. Work a handful of sets to total muscular failure, eat and drink high protein and you'll do great!


Ecdysterone dosage and diet advice

"I'm new to using Kre-Anabolyn and looking for good advice on dosage and how to work it into my diet for best results."

Protein: How much is enough?

"To gain muscle, how many grams of protein should I be taking in daily? Right now I weigh 175 lbs and I would like to weigh 190."

For serious fitness training, the evidence supporting a daily protein intake in the range of 1.5 to 2 grams per pound of bodyweight is overwhelming. At 175 pounds, you should aim for a daily intake of around 300 grams of quality protein. You can later adjust this amount up or down as your goals / gains dictate. To reach this level, each meal should be focused around hearty portions of your favorite high protein foods like chicken, fish and seafood, steak and other beef cuts, lamb and eggs if you tolerate them well (toss 1/2 the yokes).

Post-workout protein intake is crucial. Via the workout stimulus, what is called the "golden window" opens. During this time, your muscle cells, quite literally, open up fully for a short time and seek to soak up protein like a sponge does water. In order to take full advantage of this opportunity to greatly accelerate the growth and repair of your muscle tissue a legitimate, quickly assimilated protein shake such as advanced MASS PRO Whey should be employed. Table proteins are not suitable here because they do not digest nearly fast enough.

It's also important to note that a couple MASS PRO shakes between meals will help you to easily reach your daily protein requirements without having to stuff yourself at the table. It has been said many times; "it is much easier to drink rather than eat a high protein diet". Two scoops of Mass Pro Whey Protein mixed into 3 cups of organic milk quickly yields a full 75 grams of muscle building protein for your hungry muscle tissue and is typically less expensive gram for gram verses preparing time-consuming high protein foods.


If I could only use one supplement...

"Adaptogen N has worked wonders for me! Matter of fact, if I could only use one supplement I would pick it without hesitation. Much more effective than Tribestan, which I was using before. I don't know who designed it, but give them my thanks on a job well done."

Thank you, we appreciate your high praise! If you look closely at the Adaptogen N formulation you'll see that each of the five compounds has both a specific function in and of itself while also complimenting the "whole" to an extraordinary level. Not to knock good quality Tribulus only items, but they only address a small portion of what Adaptogen N does. The brainchild behind the formula is John Drake, our company founder by the way.


Can my babe Burn it Up?

nutritional supplements"My wife is considering a prescription diet pill with listed side-effects that fill two full pages. I'm against it and have asked her to try your thermogenic first. It is OK for the ladies same as men, right? I've also read that yohimbe is effective for "love handle" weight loss. Is this the truth?"

Yes, Burn It Up! is perfectly suited for both women (except when pregnant or lactating) and men. It is also true that research shows Yohimbe Extract to be effective at metabolizing dense "brown fat". Good for love, and love handles it is said.


Put me in the game, Coach!

"Is 16 too early to start weight training? Which exercises should I do? Best supplements?"

The "rule of thumb" is to be at least 14. Gains come fast and steady if you apply yourself during your teens, so you really are at the perfect age to start weight training. Get your physician's OK, and go for it! Master the big 3 compound movements (squat, deadlift, bench) first and you'll make far fewer mistakes down the road, not to mention be bigger and stronger before you know it.

Quality supplements can greatly speed your progress. Start with a legit protein shake like MASS PRO following all workouts. This, along with a high protein breakfast and dinner and you'll be well on your way. For a quick course of most valuable tips and insights that really work, grab a copy of the Fast Mass report available on the secure order page. It will be the best ten bucks you'll ever spend. Best of luck!


Why buy MASS PRO SYNTHAGEN?

"The Synthagen supplement is based around a better type of ecdysterone, right? Or is there really a lot more to the ingredients? What will convince me to buy Synthagen?"

While Mass Pro Synthagen is based around a specific type of hard-to-source and expensive ecdysterone, it would be a mistake to think of it as an ecdysterone supplement alone. Instead, the formula addresses every rate-limiting step in growing new muscle with highly targeted nutrients and a delivery system engineered to allow users to train harder, longer and more frequently to attain a level of muscularity, strength and improved recovery that was thought impossible without the use of hormones.

As far as convincing you beyond that, we don't really do "hard sell". It sells itself with countless reviews like these two-



"I have been taking supplements for some time now and in the ongoing fight against DOMS I can finally level the playing field. This is like nothing I've taken before. Words can't really describe it, this is SIMPLY A MUST TRY."

-Ray Laurent, Verified 5 Star MASS PRO Synthagen Review


"WTF is in this bottle? During my years, I have tried many different products - never done actual 'roids though. Most of them seem to be just air. You can't really notice any difference. Now I got in to trying this and I have a hard time believing it's real, the difference in training and recovery is hugely different. I started MPS while I was recovering from a monster leg workout. For 3 days I could barely walk. Yesterday I did the same workout and I'm not feeling it at all. What's the trick? Can this be legal? Can it be real? Seems so, but still...."
